Description
Stefania Merighi and co-authors test whether pulsed electromagnetic fields protect brain cells from amyloid damage, in a 2024 study. Alzheimer's disease involves inflammation and neuron death, and few treatments slow it.
The team injured two cell types in dishes: neuron-like cells with peroxide or amyloid, and immune cells of the brain stirred up by a bacterial signal or amyloid. The injured cells were then exposed to gentle field pulses at 75 hertz. Readings of cell stress, powerhouse health, and death followed. The fields defended the neuron-like cells against amyloid harm in these tests. Earlier clinical reports found such stimulation safe, which keeps the door open to patient studies.
